A POEM IN PROSE.

tFrom AN Eulogy on the late Senator Pike,
delivered In the House of Representatives,
February 90, 1887, by Mr.. Long Of Massachu'
setts.l
By reason of an affection of the heart his
life was continually trembling in the most
sensitive balance. And, II dwell on these
personal traits, 1t is because he seemed to
me to be conscious all this time that the
Angel OF Death walked by his side, ready at
any moment to take his hand and lead him
away; and that with that consciousness
there came to him, not only the brave
spirit of resignation, but the braver spirit Of
doing his duty to the last, to the last letting
only sunshine rsdIate from his face, only
helpfulness from his hand.
When our friends die we say: God rest
their souls.
But God rested his while he yet lived, In
the very face OF death.
1t was the fitness Of poetic justice that,
not here In Washington, but In his own
New Hampshire home, death claimed him
amid the incompatible beauty and glory OF
the New Hampshire autumn sunshine-in
the open air Of that paradise of mountains
and forest and lake and farm and field to
which every New Hampshire heart is loyal,
and on the acres won and cultivated by his
own hand.
There, as peacefully as bis own blameless
life had run, as serenely as his kind face
leaned, came the end.
The Augel, who is even tenderer and
gentler than her sister Sleep, had indeed
walked at bis side SO long that he recognized
her as the blessed angel Of mans succor and
peace.
She had waited till their walk that bright
day over the pleasant fields aud under the
blue sky gave the opportunity happlest for
her and for him.
Then she gathered her arms about him.
His head fell upon her shoulder even as
he went.
And lol be was at rest in the nanslons OF
his Father house.
The Washington critic., 1887-02-24

THE Berlin National Zeitung, In Its
comment on the late elections, remarks
that foreigners will now see how
mistaken they were in regarding the
vote on the army bill in the Reichst,y
as an expression of German opiuipn.
The average foreigner, however, will
still insist that the voice of the people
was better heard in the Rcichstis than
it was at,hc polls In the u 'e cas-; the
opposition TO the government had
everything its own way In the other,
1t was the governments turn to have
It's own way, and it had il-not so
much as the people wiiled, but as Bis
marck directed.

II THE Eads Ship Railway bill and
the Nicaragua Canal bill are unobiect-
ionable TO the Senate, what's the matter
with Captain John Cowden's Lake
Borgne outlet scheme, that will never
cost the Government cent unless 1t
proves a success; while If 1t should
answer the projectors expectations, 1t
would be worth to the Government
many times what 1t would ever be
called OIL to pay

reduction of the hours Of labor, a tax
on incomes and the prompt payment OF
the National debt. 1t is not at all bad
scheme in some of Its parts. In others
tits impracticable and Indicative, rather,
of spirit of unrest and speculation
than of settled and definite conviction.
THE Senate has passed the bill
creating Department of Agriculture,
and transferring to this new executive
department the Signal Service and the
Labor bureaus. The bill will now go
to conference, and 1t is to be hoped that
the House will interposc no objection
TO the Senate amendments. There Is
no disagreement as TO the desirability
of raising the Agricultural Department
to Its proposed executive rank; there
will probably be no great objection to
the transfer of the Signal Service.
Altogether 1t Is legislation that ought
to pass, and being so nearly consum-
mated. 1t would be great pity to have
the bill fail for any cause in the closing
hours of the session.

THE Senate yesterday, by an over.
WI Ginning vote, passed over the Presi-
dents veto the bill granting arrears of
pensions to Thomas S. Hopkins of
Maine. 1t was peculiar case, and the
feeling of Senators was that the Presi.
dent had not been fully informed as to
its circumstances; otherwise he would
not have disapproved the bill. The
applicant was stricken with nervous
disease while In the service, which re.

stand upon his feet for a single hour.
Prior to 1878 Mr.. Hopkins had been
fairly prosperous, enjoying good
salary as q Government clerk, and after.
wares good income in the practice
of the law, and had given no
thought TO the matter of arrearages of
pensions. 1t was only under extraor.
dinary stress of circumstances that the
application was finally made to exempt
him by reason of mental incapacity
from the limitation clause of the Ar.
rears act, and grant him what was
clearly his right by virtue of di,a'
billties incurred In the service of his
country. The arrears to which Hop
kins will be entitled. instead of 80, 900,

amount is immaterial If the claim be as
meritorious as fifty five Senators have
given us to understand.
The Labor Convention which Is In
session at Cincinnati adopted a plat.
form last night, of which one notable
feature is that 1t favors arbitration over
all other methods for the settlement of
